Good day all,

So with almost 300km on the dials, I can say I love the drive. As Sneikz explains it is so simple and plain and feels almost like riding a classic bike.

Also people passer-by's address me about the bike. That's also fun.

Some things that need attention will be fixed at the first service maintenance checkup.
- Rear signal lights did work but don't anymore (looks like a voltage thing; lamp burned black).
- Right rear signal light orange plastic fell off during ride; the shop will deliver a new one.
- Rear gear looks crooked (moves left right according to a mate who drove behind me).
- The speed dial cable fell of the dial several times; I fixed this myself by applying lock tide.

So minor things which will be fixed by the supplier and won't spoil the fun!

Also one thing I find less attractive is the sound (actually noise). Revving the engine to 2000 RPM is okay; it makes the typical dark deep throaty 4stroke sound. But then revving up and speeding up from there the typical 4stroke sound disappears and makes place for a bit of a high crying whimpering sound with different sound mixing up the noises.
Ha ha. Love your take on the sound. Once it's out of warranty, drill that sucker the out. 100's of mods to do scattered around this forum. Turn down the bars and get an iridium plug at next service. (may have to pay, but very little) and you have two instant improvements. At first smell of fuel swap out cap rubber for Honda OEM and you're set to "get down low and go go go!"

Hello all,

Just wanted to let you know the rear gear has been fixed and is straight now. Because of the fix the bike sounds a lot better. There is no background noise going on now.

Did some driving with a friend today lovely weather for October here in Holland.

Cheers!
